Nutritional Gain at a glance

Glucose & DHA for Cognitive Development

PuppyZest® contains a measured amount of glucose providing balanced and immediately available energy resource critical for the first 24 hours. (A1, A2) Research also highlights DHA’s critical role in supporting normal brain function and visual development in early life. Algae derived Omega oil offers a source of DHA supporting normal neurological and nervous system health, eye health and the cardiovascular system. Algal oil supports gut microbiota and the intestinal barrier to facilitate normal gut function. (A2)

Colostrum & Immunity

Studies show colostrum’s role in boosting passive immunity (B2) which provides neonates with normal defenses. PuppyZest provides an essential supplementary source of IgG maternal antibodies which assists and compliment normal passive immunity, critical in the first few hours of life. (B1) Colostrum also provides a source of protein providing the necessary building blocks for a healthy start and maintaining a healthy intestinal lining.

Probiotic Stability

Evidence supports probiotics' ability to stabilize gut health and return normal digestive function in neonatal pups. Saccharomyces cerevisae in PuppyZest® provides the body with a natural probiotic which adsorbs pathogenic bacteria benefiting the puppy’s natural gut flora anti-microbial defenses. (P2) In addition, Saccharomyces cerevisae maintains normal gastrointestinal health which can be affected by dietary changes (P3) Enterococcus faecium is included and helps colonize the gut with beneficial bacteria. (P1)

Nutritional Zest & Essential Vitamins

PuppyZest® contains botanical extracts (Z1, Z2, Z3) which helps return normal sensory responses. In addition, select vitamins which provide a supplemental source for supporting normal vision, bone growth, cellular differentiation and the immune response. (V1, V2)
